She filmed a video of herself “mid-meltdown” over the extreme tariff, posting it on her social media.

Anything for social media clout. These kinds of people get no sympathy from me.

That was a great movie

Yes, they are literally called Ninja swords in the legislation.

Yes, it is hilarious.

Even prior to the current political climate, police overreach in hospitals has happened multiple times. Usually involves police arresting a nurse/doctor for not doing what the police want (even if the medical staff are in the right). Medical staff loses pay for the day, patient harm does happen because of involuntary abandonment, and no punishment is metered for the police.

So yeah, doctors and nurses are quite helpless here.

Could ICE be liable for death or injury incurred from deporting a citizen?

Yes, but only if the court will uphold the law. And at that point, the punitive measures can’t bring back life or brain function.

That’s a bingo.

Since they’re probably chronically overworked, they’re probably unhappy about it. And getting people floated to them who don’t want to do work is a common issue with those kinds of units.

I’m a very nonconfrontational person, but if someone called to interrupt whatever I was doing to ask “I want to know how much I have to work” tomorrow, I wouldn’t be happy.

cars will need to use buttons, dials, or stalks for hazard warning lights, indicators, windscreen wipers, SOS calls, and the horn.

Not enough, in my opinion. I’ve never had a car with these on touch screens, but I can’t imagine why anyone would think it’s a good idea. I’d like entertainment centers to stop being touch screens as well, but this doesn’t go that far. Hopefully they do in the future, though, since this is a good start!

Congress says

Congress is concerned

Congress warns

It is literally your job to prevent these concerns. Stop talking and do something. The old fucks who refuse to leave office have been collecting paychecks while sitting back and doing nothing, progressively giving away their power to the executive branch for the past ~20 years. Now they’re concerned? Too little, too late. Either step up (but watch out for broken hips) or get out of the way.

Did any of you read the article, or did you just read the headline and jump to push anti-trump propaganda?

I dislike stripping down ATCs, who are already overworked. But this ain’t related to that. This was a PPL crash on an uncontrolled airstrip. I struggle to imagine how this is Trump’s fault.

Next House Hearing: Hearing not scheduled Calendar: Bill currently not on a House calendar

But it hasn’t even hit the house. This is the American legislative process. Any bill can be introduced and read. It takes a lot to be placed on the calendar, but even then doesn’t guarantee any chance at passing. So no, this is literally no further than “the musings of a Canadian backbencher who spouts his stupid opinions”.

Yeah, I was trying to find something like that to back up my point. Article, AFI, SecDec report, Pentagon statement, etc, but couldn’t find anything. There’s someone else in the thread who posted some pictures of these teams without nametapes, but that’s not much stronger evidence than my word.

Hell or High Water. Fantastic utilization of visuals combined with smooth and enjoyable music. Love the whole trilogy, but this is my favorite of them.

The practice originates from prisoner movement during our global war on terror. It was due to concern over domestic operatives targeting armed forces members, which is not new. The linked story is an example of this being used to instill fear.

While I don’t think this equates at all for simple deportation flights, this seems to be the underlying justification for the above tactic, be it to prevent retaliation or “making an example” to scare away further attempts at deportation.

Again, I didn’t think this concern is nearly as founded as it was during global war on terrorism, but this is what I think is the justification.

That’s the general idea, yes.

That explains it, thank you!

Wouldn’t it not be so different, since I’m not part of the official organization? Just tangential?

I’m not very good with history. I know the broad strokes, but I’ve forgotten a lot of this kind of history. It hasn’t been relevant in my line of work, so doesn’t get easily remembered.

That link does explain the reference, though, thank you!

That is literally not an option for a very large majority of these service members. That’ll be an Article 15 for sure, maybe a courtmartial.

Seriously, what is a brownshirt?

What is brownshirt?

Courtmarshall is probably not what you want in this. That’s specific to the UCMJ, which would discipline them for NOT removing identifiers. You probably want them to go through civilian courts if that’s your goal. Which probably means you’re thankful for Trump’s push for increased executions.

Hey gang, I’m very closely related to this field and wanted to share some insight into this!

This is VERY COMMON practice for these situations. The idea is not to cover up inhumane tactics, but protect our personnel. While I’m sure a majority of these individuals are simple illegal immigrants who have no ill intentions, there are criminal gangs being caught up in this. Not the entire gang is being picked up, just the illegal immigrants. So the policy of removing identification from the uniforms is to protect the military member and their family.

These commands come from the highest level, meaning each individual service member is not making the decision for themselves, but they are being commanded as a whole. Much as some might not like the connotations associated with this, it is a common practice and relevant due to the stated purpose of these missions.

I appreciate this rational take. As a Christian, I disagree with the “persecuted Christianity” narrative that the Roman Catholic Church aggressively pushes. Just like the above commenter is likely focusing on the vocal minority and ignoring everything else, I think the Catholic Church is focusing on the vocal minority and pushing this narrative for their own gain. And statements like the above commenter serve to reinforce that.
